ASTONISHING SUCCESS.

It Is the duty Of every person who has used BosHEE's GERMAN SYRUP to let its wonderful qualities be known to thelr friends in curing Consump tion, severe Coughs, Group, Asthma, Pneumonia, and in fact all throat and lung diseases. No person can use it without immediate relief. Three doses will relieve any case, and we consider it the duty Of all Druggists to recommend it to the poor, dying consumptlve, at least to try one bottle, as 80.000 dozen bot ties were sold last year, and no one case who're it failed were reported. Such medicine as the GERMAN SIR up cannot be too widely Known. Ask your druggist about it. Sample bot ties to try, sold at 10 cents. Regu- lar size. 75 cents. Sold by all Drug eists and Dealers, in the United States and Canada. If.

CURE FOR PILES.

Piles are frequently preceded by a sense of weight in the back, Joins and lower part of the abdomen, causing the patient to suppose he had some aflec- tion of the kidneys or ncighboring or gans. At times, symptoms of indiges- tion are present, as flatulency, uneasi- ness of the stomach, etc. A moisture, like precipitation, producing very disagreeablc itching, after getting warm, is very common attendant. Blind, Bleeding and Itching Piles yield at once to the application of Dr Bo- sanko's Pile Remedy, which acts direct iy upon the part affected, absorbing the Tumors, allaying the intense itching, and effecting permanent cure.

WITH BETTER WATER
The Flour Output Is Increased to
Good PrOnOrtiOnS.


Reviewing the situation among the
mills and the outlook for the flour mar
ket, the Northwestern Miller for this
week will say:
the water power, and for a week past the
mills have had nearly as much water as they
needed. AS result the use of steam has
been mostly discontinued, and the flour
production has risen to extensive pro-
portions. The output last week was
increased 10000 bbls, the total product be-
ing, 157, 400 bbls-averaging 20, $50 bbls
daily-against 147 900 bbls the preceding
week, and 141 200 bbls for the correspond
acknowledgements in operation the pres
ent week, but though all are being crowded
to their utmost, the output is likely to
be lighter than q week ago. This will
be due to the two days idleness of the
larger portion of the Washburn A, and
to the expecte d shut down of the Columbia,
Thursday, for repairs. The difference in out
put made by this would be about 5000 bbls
The daily product for the past two days has
gines in the largest class of mills have been
Withdrawn from use, leaving only two doing
service, and one of these win be
stopped in few days. Every
body is well stocked with orders
for flour, and millers, feeling pretty indie
pendent, have put up prices 10c or more.
A the advance the demand is less active,
though yet good, the export trade having i'm
proved. Buyers are anxious to get old wheat
large millers are disposed to sell only where
they can get top figures. The weeks exports
were increased to 10000 barrels, those of
the week before being So 900.

Exodus of Minnesotians and Da-
kotians to Denver, Col.
The indications are that the Minnesota
and Dakota contingent at Denver, Col,
during and after the session of the Soy
ereign Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows and
the assembly and prize drill of the Pa
triarchs militant will be large one, as
the arrangements for reduced railway
fares are such as to enable all to go who
wish, whether members of the order or
otherwise. But the impression that all
who go will be made participants in all
the good things prepared by the breth-
rem of Kansas, Nebl aSka and Colorado
is erroneous. The invitations to the
series of entertainments from Kansas
City to Denver, the side excursions to
the Rocky mountains, the Garden of the
Gods, etc., are to the members of the
Sovereign Grand lodge and those ac-
companying them, each grand repre-
sentative being well supplied with COM
plimentaries.
The grand representatives of Mime
sofa and Dakota have arranged to leave
Minneapolis and st. Paul on the morn
ing of Sept. 13 via the Omaha railway
to Kansas City, and thence via the
Santa Fe. At Kansas City the coaches
will be made part of the train convey
ing the grand sire, lieutenant general
and nearly all the other grand repre-
sentatives, which train will be in charge
of the committee of the Kansas and Ne
braSka grand lodge and will stop at
Topeka, Garden City, Colorado Springs
and other places, where banquets will
be spread by the local brethren. The
Colorado committee will take charge of
the springs and in an invitation ex-
tended by them modestly says.

Sandbagged. BY Joyei

Fred j. Mackley. the actor who has
recently been playing an engagement
at the dime museum, was sandbagged
while on his way to take the II o'clock
train for ST. Paul Tuesday night. When
on High street, almost opposite the
depot, he was met by two men, one of
whom asked, ''What time is it?'
strangely obliviOus to the fact that an
illuminated clock, with dial as big as
mill pond, indicated the exact minute
of the hour. MIR. Mackley thoughtlessly
took out his watch-the result can be
imagined. He is minus his watch and
81 in money, and plus a black eye,
which marks the spot where the sand
bag struck him.

The COMMITTEES of Fifteen.

The citizens committee of fifteen,
appointed to bring about some adj
justment of the disagreement be-
tween the Manitoba and Minneapolis and
ST. Louis roads concerning improved
terminal facilities, met yesterday. w.
P. Clough was present as attorney for
the Manitoba, J. ID. Springer for the
Minneapolis q St. Louis. and j. N.
Cross for the city. Mr.. Clough said the
Manitoba was not satisfied with the de-
cision of the district court and was de-
termined to ascertain whether that
court has the power to compel the re-
moval of tracks for this purpose. An
appeal will be taken to the supreme
court and he hoped decision would be
reached during the October term. Vice
President Truesdell, of the Mime
apolis & st. Louis. is absent from the
city, but is expected to return to-day,
when he will be waited upon by COM
mittee consisting Of A. g. o. Morrison,
